	Transatlantic relations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Transatlantic relations refers to the historic, cultural, political, economic and social relations between countries on both side of the Atlantic Ocean, specifically between the United States, Canada and the countries in Europe.
		Transatlantic relations recently have been characterised as strained, especially due to divergent positions on the Iraq war which prominent European nations, including France and Germany (dubbed Old Europe by Donald Rumsfeld) opposed.
		This causes problems with transatlantic relations because it may be illegal for an EU member to allow the extradition of a citizen to the U.S. if the death penalty is an option.

		Transatlantic relations have benefited from the conscious decision made by the US not to withdraw from Europe in 1945, as it had done after the end of the First World War, but rather to maintain a long-term presence.
		During the Cold War, transatlantic relations were dominated by the need to jointly defend the United States and Western Europe against the Soviet threat.

		With transatlantic trade and investment now surpassing a trillion dollars, US and EU domestic officials, be they trade, competition, consumer protection or other authorities, increasingly contact their transatlantic counterparts to coordinate common actions, as well as to challenge each other's domestic policies.
		Transgovernmental relations were the subject of a brief, intense interest in the 1970s, when scholars began to challenge the unitary-state model of international relations, and have returned to the scholarly agenda in the 1990s as a possible model for a "Real New World Order" of governance by transgovernmental networks of government experts.
		Transnational relations, finally, have become a major focus of international relations scholarship in the 1990s, culminating in the recent proclamation of a "world polity" or a "global civil society" of non-governmental actors, pursuing their respective aims across national borders, or indeed without reference to states at all.

	Transatlantic Relations
		The Transatlantic Alliance, the most vital force for peace in Europe since World War Two, has been driven by controversy over the war in Iraq and, more broadly, how most effectively to wage the global war on terror.

		But Europe’s responsibility to preserve healthy transatlantic ties, it seems to me, compels it to reject this competitive view of our common future and to avoid the gratuitous anti-Americanism that has been all too evident in European public discourse during the past year.

		While Europe’s relations with America are indeed changing in many ways, I am confident that NATO will continue to recreate itself and remain strong and purposeful for the future.
